02.01.83 – First Potion
Fragrance notes
Character
A coat thrown over a sweater on a cool afternoon calls for a scent that matches the texture of the fabric. This unisex release opens with a distinct animalic presence built around fur and civet. Hay and leather round out the initial impression, creating a dry and slightly rough entry that feels immediate. The fur note provides a tactile quality that sits close to the skin, while the civet adds a traditional muskiness that defines the early character of the composition.
As the scent develops, the focus shifts to the heart where soil tincture and green leaves introduce an earthy density. The green leaves offer a crisp contrast to the heavier opening, but the soil tincture keeps the mood grounded and dark. Moving into the base, vetiver, bark, and moss establish a woody foundation. The bark and moss combine to create a forest-floor atmosphere that feels natural rather than polished. The vetiver adds a root-like sharpness that prevents the base from becoming too flat or monotone.
Composed by Jimmy Bodin, this fragrance fits a person who enjoys smelling the components of the outdoors in their clothing. It is a choice for a walk through damp woods when the air turns crisp and the ground is soft. Those who prefer clean, soapy, or aquatic profiles will find this composition too heavy and unrefined. It speaks to a preference for raw materials and the scent of nature in its unwashed state.
